The 10th #Nakshatra: #MAGHA.

The four quarters are ruled by:
Mangala (Mars) - the 1st quarter,
Shukra (Venus) - the 2nd quarter,
Buddha (Mercury) - the 3rd quarter,
and Chandra (Moon) - the 4th quarter.

Other aspects of this Nakshatra:
The Purushardha (life's vector) is #Artha.
Totem animal is #Rat (male).
Symbols: a #house or a #palanquin.
Devata (Deity) - #Pitris.
Dosha - #Kapha.

This is 10th Nakshatra of the zodiac, ruled by the node #Ketu and spanning from 00°00' to 13°20' in the sign Leo (Simha), ruled by Sūrya the #Sun. Ketu signifies Tapasya or relentless efforts, while Sūrya (Sun) signifies the royal charm and authority. Hence these people, in whatever capacity they work, try to achieve the highest positions through continuous efforts.

Magha born are constantly trying to upgrade their skills to achieve higher levels of authority. They respect the elders and their experience. They are aware of their traditions and cultural heritage. They are straight forward, do not like to harm others and expect that others should not harm them in any way. If this does not happen, they are ready to fight and avenge the damage.

Generating wealth and enjoying it at the cost of society is not in their blood. Even when they are reach, they tend to spend their money on activities that result in general welfare of the society. Because of this characteristic, these people are often failures if they undertake independent business, as reckless profit making is not in their blood. When they undertake any task, they will not leave any stone unturned till they achieve the success. They will work in the same way for others, while serving in an employee's capacity. But since they are not much interested in material wealth, an employee born in this Nakshatra will often shy away form asking for a higher salary or a higher bonus.

Generally males born in this Nakshatra get a good, trustworthy wife. Females born in this Nakshatra are religious minded and most devoted to their husbands. But the females born in this Nakshatra must be cautious to avoid any frictions in the family.

In case any of his action is responsible for hurting the feeling of others, he is immediately tries to rectify such action. He also does not like any person who makes hindrance or causes troubles to others. That is why there may be several hidden enemies in the native's life. He is hot-tempered. He cannot tolerate any action or activity which is not within the purview of truth. But this mental feeling leads him into a state of failures. Selfishness is a remote question for him. He does several things for the community or society not with the intention of getting anything in return but for mental satisfaction. This is the reason why the native is able to catch the eyes of the public.

  1. Education, sources of earning/profession: He will have many servants and great wealth. In the professional field he cannot attain much success in the material field as he is not business minded and mainly due to his straightforwardness.

He is bound to change his field of earning business. Once he takes a decision, he will stick to that decision. His dealings with his superiors and subordinates are very cordial and most technical. Hence he is able to be a link between his boss and subordinates.

It is said that this material world is an imperfect reflection of spiritual world. #Nakshatras, 27 Vedic stars beyond the zodiac, with their gods and shaktis, are revealing us our Divine potential, as well as give us hints about how can we get the best of it to live more aligned life.
#Pitris, the #Divine #ancestors, solar pranic energies, which assist us on our journey from body to body and remind us about our eternal connection to continuum of life, encourage us to become more detached, and responsible in our contribution to life.
Pitris, the Divine ancestors of higher realms, remind us about the same Divine roots, which all of us share as humanity. They remind us about the universal spiritual essence, which continues to live and travel through the universe even after the death of the body, from life to life, until it reaches final emancipation. Through this Divine spark, and through those Divine roots we are all connected – and with this realisation comes acknowledgement of our responsibility and duties towards this material world, which we should fulfil both with devotion and detachment. Because in this very present moment, through each of our thoughts, actions and words, that contribute to shaping the future, we become the ancestors of our own and this world’s future, too.
#Magha #nakshatra, bringing release after intense energies in Ashlesha, inspires us to seek spiritual freedom from material bondages – but at the same to honour our roots and stay responsible towards the world that we come from. Because detachment, without respect to our eternal connection to continuum of life, can be destructive, too. Moon in Magha inspires us to honour this sacred connection instead of trying to get isolated it from it or running away from it – as illusion of separation can make our ego become too strong, too. And Moon in Magha can frequently become too proud or isolated. This lunar mansion, dwelling in the center of zodiacal third eye chakra, teaches us how to, first of all, get detached from our ego identity and to become more selfless i our thoughts, words and actions.

#Magha is a #Sanskrit #word that signifies “large” or “great.” Magha Nakshatra bestows royal and honorable places to its inhabitants, as the name suggests. It is a symbol of power, dominance, authoritative status, and high social regard. Magha #Nakshatra people are thought to be natural-born leaders in their vocations. Ascendant and Moon’s constellations reveal the essence of one’s inner personality.
Because it is ruled by #Pitris, the #ancestors of the #human race, rather than Devatas, Magha Nakshatra residents are intensely attached to their ancestral beliefs and traditions. Furthermore, because the devils govern the Nakshatra, the native is engrossed in the world’s material pleasures. This can be considered to be closely related to our own and our ancestors’ past actions. In Leo’s #constellation, it is the brightest #star. The word Magha means ‘Magnificent,’ and it is represented by a royal throne. Magha Nakshatra people can use their influence and position to achieve their utmost ambitions.

The native people are generous and have a lion-like demeanor. They have an inclination for ancestor worship and an interest in occult sciences. In the Leo sign, the Magha Nakshatra extends from 00°00′ to 13°20′ degrees.

Sacred Energy Vortex
#Thavasimadai #Sri #Mahalinga Swami

The sacred temple associated with Magha star is Thavasimadai Sri Mahalinga Swami located in Thavasimadai near Dindigul in Tamil Nadu, India. Those people born under Magha star should worship the sacred shrine at some point in their life time.

In ancient times, this gigantic Lord #Shiva #temple was known as Thapas Viradam. It is presently in poor condition, with only one or two small places where deities manifest in the temple. This temple has been neglected during the Kaliyuga with little or no offerings being made to the deities. It is truly the responsibility of devotees to renovate the temple and return this sacred shrine to the ancient prominence it once had. There are still abundant energies generated through austerity at Thavasimadai.

The people born under Magha nakshatra have the magnificent energy of leadership.

There are two goddesses at Thavasimadai Sri Mahalingeswarar temple. These goddesses are placed at the side of the main shrine, as this is the custom of worshipping the goddesses. In ancient times thousands of rishis and saints were in deep mediation to perform penance at this temple. The women, wanting to refrain from disturbing the rishis and saints, developed the habit of worshipping from a distance.

Mahaththavam is when the service to God is entrusted by the spiritual teacher continues until the teacher orders it to stop. The shrine at Thavasimadai is filled with abundance of Mahaththava superhuman powers. The great sage, Bharadwaja Maharishi conducted meditation here.

#Magha #Nakshatra is the tenth of 27 #nakshatras. If you were born when the moon was between 0:00-13:20 degrees #Leo

#Sanskrit Name: मघा (Magha). Some meanings of the word magha are “power,” and “wealth,” indicating good fortune, inner strength, and a strict demeanor.

Planetary Ruler: #Ketu. Known in the Puranas as the headless body of the shadow planet Rahu, Ketu is associated with intensity, loss, and transcendence.

Nakshatra Group: Monstrous. Nakshatras are divided into three classes — monsters, humans, and gods. Magha is a monstrous nakshatra. People in this group are generally intuitive, strong-willed, and assertive. They may be prone to anger and violence.

Zodiac Sign: Leo. Leo is famously associated with the king of the jungle, the lion. Leos are powerful, brave, big-hearted individuals who may struggle with pride.

Deity: #Daksha, or the #Pitris. In Sanskrit, “pitri” refers to one’s deceased ancestors. Daksha is the leader of the Prajapatis, who are considered the original progenitors of mankind and thus the original #ancestors.

Symbol: A #palanquin or #throne. This represents royalty, nobility, power, and wealth.

Power: To renounce. Although Maghas attract much material opulence and success, this nakshatra has the ability to let go. This power is also associated with the ultimate renunciation of the mortal body at death.

Resonant Syllables: In India, the birth nakshatra is traditionally used as one means of choosing the name of a child. The corresponding syllables for the four quarters (padas) of Magha are Ma (मा), Me (मी), Moo (मू), and May (मे). The syllable of a person’s first name is sometimes used when calculating an astrological chart if the time of birth is unknown.

Strengths
The nakshatra Magha is often considered “the mighty one.” Magha natives are individuals of great power. Leadership comes naturally to you, and your bravery, ambition, and industriousness will likely put you in a position of influence. Wealth and prosperity are yours for the taking.

You have a sharp intellect and are able to understand things on a deep level. You can reach to the depths of any subject, and this sets you apart from being merely intelligent — you are wise. You don’t lead only with force and brawn, but with wisdom and warmth.

People trust you because you are always straightforward and truthful. You don’t hide your motives. You’re unlikely to turn a blind eye to inconvenient facts, since you prefer to face difficulty directly — you take the truth head on and use it to bolster, rather than discourage, your optimism.

You are loyal and loving to your friends and family. You are fair and responsible and never let down the people who count on you. Generally well-behaved and modest, your personal qualities and big heart endear you to those who know you and, potentially, to the masses.

Magha Careers
Magha natives will shine in careers where their leadership abilities are utilized, and where there is the opportunity for growth and advancement. They should avoid careers where they have little or no independence.

Some ideal professions include:

Entrepreneur, C-level executive, or manager
Politician or lawyer
Historian or librarian
Public speaker or actor/actress
Weaknesses
One of the greatest challenges Magha natives face is their own pride. The strong ego you require in order to achieve your ambitions can also lead to arrogance. Since you are more driven than most people, you will likely end up in positions of leadership — and this can lead you to feel that you are better than others.

When this egotistical nature gets the better of you, you may intentionally or unintentionally hurt others. You have a hot temper and dislike being threatened, and can respond explosively to perceived slights. You can be too outspoken and may be disdainful of others opinions, especially when you believe those opinions present a threat to your own position.

Ultimately, Maghas crave attention and approval. This may come as a surprise to outsiders who see only your strength and confidence. Your incredible drive and ambition stem largely from your need to gain approval from others and, more challengingly, from yourself. Nothing you do is ever good enough in your own eyes.

Your exacting perfectionism could leave you forever unsatisfied if you don’t learn to fully accept yourself, flaws and failings included. Otherwise, you could go through your whole life doubting yourself and being resentful of those you compare yourself to.

Recommended: Learn more about the science of the Vedas and how Vedic knowledge can help you elevate your consciousness and enhance your life.

Other Personality Traits
You are religious. You are drawn to spirituality and enjoy ceremony and ritual. You are loyal to your religious tradition.

You like tradition. Tradition is something that you believe should be respected. In general, you have great appreciation for past generations and what they have established through their own endeavors. Family traditions are important to you and you will strive to uphold them throughout your life.

You may feel racially superior. Your tendency towards arrogance can lead you to feel that your own racial or ethnic group is superior to others. Try to develop empathy for those who are different from you by establishing friendships with those from different backgrounds and exposing yourself to other cultures.

You are well-served. Your leadership qualities make others naturally follow you. There will probably be many people who follow your instructions and do their best to please you.

You can be authoritarian. You can fall into the habit of acting like your opinion is the only one that matters. This can make you boss others around without due consideration for their thoughts or feelings.

Magha Compatibility
Magha sexuality is symbolized by a male rat. In terms of physical compatibility, this makes them an ideal match for persons born under Purva-phalguni nakshatra.

Based on holistic matching, Maghas are most likely to find happiness in long-term partnerships with:

Bharani
Krittikas in Aries
Ardra (for male natives)
Purva-phalguni
Uttara-phalgunis in Leo (for female natives)
Vishakha (for female natives)
Vishakhas in Scorpio (for male natives)
Mula
Purva-ashadha
Uttara-ashadhas in Sagittarius (for female natives)
Dhanisthas in Aquarius (for female natives)
Shatabisha (for male natives)
Note: Compatibility in relationships is a complex science that looks at many different factors. You should always consult with an experienced astrologer who can carefully analyze the charts of both you and your partner.

Magha’s Four Quarters ( #Padas)
Each nakshatra is divided into four quarters, also known as padas, of 3:20 degrees each. These quarters are based on a 1/9th divisional chart, known in Sanskrit as navamsha.

The moon’s position at your time of birth determines the quarter in which you are born.

First Quarter (0:00-3:20 degrees Leo): Aries. You have a strong will and like to get your way. You are fiery and intense, and those who antagonize you are likely to get burnt. Whether you are male or female, you possess qualities that would traditionally be referred to as masculine. You are very creative. You can be too hasty, jumping into action without proper planning and overlooking details as you go.

Second Quarter (3:20-6:40 degrees Leo): Taurus. Family means everything to you, and there’s nothing you like better than spending time with them. You are attractive, both externally and internally, and people are drawn to your beauty and charismatic personality. You like the finer things in life and can probably afford them. Once you’ve made a decision, you stand firmly by it and don’t waver in the face of opposition.

Third Quarter (6:40-10:00 degrees Leo): Gemini. The influence of Gemini bestows a cunning and clever mind. You are a gifted communicator in both writing and speech. You enjoy a good battle of wits and can think up a good plan for any situation. You are artistic and enjoy coming up with new ideas and utilizing your artistic talents in a number of ways.

Fourth Quarter (10:00-13:20 degrees Leo): Cancer. The softness of Cancer balances some of Magha’s harsher qualities. You are sensitive — you aren’t as thick-skinned as other Maghas may appear to be and you are very attuned to the thoughts and feelings of others. You have great respect for your elders, knowing that their experience gives them wisdom you can learn from. You are loved by many.

Magha in Electional Astrology
In electional astrology, also known as muhurtha, nakshatras are used to determine favorable days and times for important ceremonies and events, such as weddings, buying a new house or vehicle, commencing a project, or conceiving a child.

Giving up bad habits

Quitting a job
Any destructive act, such as weeding or demolition

#Magha #Nakshatra in #Astrology
Magha Nakshatra is the 10th of 27 #Nakshatras, ranging from 0 degrees to 13 degrees and 20 minutes in Leo. It has 4 padas as follows:

This constellation ultimately falls under the zodiac Leo and is called ‘The Mighty One.’ The planet that rules this Nakshatra is #Ketu. Deities are the ‘ #Pitris’ or the ancestors. They guide and protect Magha natives.

These people are very traditional. They like to hold on to their ancestors, lineage, and anything related to the past. So, ancestral properties and inheritances are the significant themes under this Nakshatra. Basically, the Magha natives are interested in anything related to the past, be it ancestral, historical, scriptures, events, archaeological, etc.

If Mercury is transiting in Magha, the native is interested in written documents such as scriptures. On the other hand, if Ketu is posited in Magha, the native gets interested in the secret hidden knowledge like occult and tantra vidya. However, if Mars placement is in the Nakshatra of Magha, the native is interested in the critical history of a nation. Depending on the planetary influence or planets placed in this Nakshatra, the native develops various interests. But the theme of the Nakshatra is always there, i.e., anything related to the past or ancestral.

They usually have collections of antiques or hold on to the things passed down from generation to generation. They are strongly connected to the family name. Also, they receive good inheritances or family wealth. These natives are generally considered lucky since they are born with silver spoons in their mouth. They also witness unexpected good things happening to them frequently and out of the blue. It is with the blessings of ancestors that they get desirable things.

There is a mythological story with respect to this Nakshatra. ‘Karna’, the eldest son of Kunti, dies and goes to heaven. There he is served food in the form of gold. He asks how he is supposed to eat it. He is informed that on earth, he offered only gold in the name of his Pitris or ancestors. That’s why he was getting food made of gold. He understands it and comes back to earth for 15 days just to give food as an offering to his ancestors. These 15 days are celebrated as ‘Pitru-Paksha’, and it comes in the month of September.

One thing that Magha natives should do is give offerings to their ancestors and respect them. They are the guardian angels.

The symbol of this Nakshatra is a #palanquin or #throne. It is a symbol of being an authority, royal, rich, and heritage. The Magha natives feel that they want fame, power, position, and high status because they are born like that. They make big plans and execute. They are achievers and fearless.

Magha nakshatra males and females get success easily. They have a high level of confidence. However, they are natural leaders. They are straight forward and outspoken. They are generally good people. Due to these qualities, many politicians are of Magha Nakshatra.

They take care of their group, whoever they are leading. They are like a king. But if they feel that someone is negating their way of thinking and executing plans, they get very hot-tempered. They cannot stand any denial because they have a sense of authority. Magha natives have the motives to achieve worldly success, wealth, fame, power, and status. Whether it be their family, team at office or followers, they take care of them as guardians and protectors.

They don’t talk much. These natives might look arrogant, proud, and snobbish. However, they are just regal. Small talk is not for them. They can be reactive where their mission or policies are concerned. They are hot-headed and can take strong action.

The power of this Nakshatra is ‘letting go of your physical body’. That means letting go of material attachments. So the natives have a lot of energy and power to get into spirituality. A lot of Yogis are born under this Nakshatra. Maharishi Mahesh Yogi (introduced transcendental meditation) and Paramhansa Yogananda had their Moon in Magha. However, Magha natives have the capacity to go beyond their physical self and move towards liberation.

They can be very materialistic or very spiritual. By the way, their actions are very drastic and extreme. But they are sometimes considered very cruel. Undoubtedly, they are perfectionists. They want to be known as leaders. They are constantly analyzing their actions and finding their faults. A streak of jealousy and hatred can crop up against the people with whom they compete with.

There is a lot of restlessness in this Nakshatra. They are physically strong people. They sometimes tend to think that they are higher beings. However, they have a superiority complex. They prefer to be served rather than serving. They enjoy flattery and cannot take criticism. They are loyal to their group and generous, and have a big heart for them.

#MAGHA #NAKSHATRA

HE STAR OF HERITAGE & POWER
Magha means power, majesty and rulership. This Nakshatra is our very heart of power. Magha gives us grand royal standing, and the power of rulership.

The power of rulership comes by embracing the dualisms within the Heart. When the Heart no longer divides, it takes the seat of power in all the realms of existence.

Magha is found in the constellation of Simha (Leo) and is actually the Star Alpha Leonis, which is the very heart of the Lion. This Star is also known by the name Regulus in Latin, which interestingly, means ‘the little king’.

Magha Nakshatra is often symbolised by a throne, representing our heritage and power. The seat of power of this star is the seat of our hereditary power. It concerns the power of our past and our ancestry.

This star
brings us to question
the actual meaning of power.
Magha’s power is the power of the Heart. The deepest lesson that this Star represents is opening to an all-encompassing Heart that unites all, and rejects nothing. This is the vision of the Yogins.
enter image description here
THE HEADLESS PAST
We see that the planetary ruler of this Nakshatra is #Ketu. This is the Southern node of the Moon that is responsible for lunar eclipsing.

Ketu concerns the past. He is the body without a head, and is the storehouse of the unconscious rudiment of our being.
When we work with Ketu, we go back into the past, where those forgotten and unseen elements of ourselves are brought into focus.
The Moon rules the mind and our psychic awareness.

Ketu,
having the power
to eclipse the mind,
represents the storehouse
of personal history
that can impose itself
upon the vision of reality.
Afflictions of Ketu make one into a library of past manuscripts and transactions that obscure the flexible vision of ever changing reality.

When Ketu holds strong sway in our lives, we have family disputes, and we grind on the grudges of the past.
When we come back to the roots, we are in effect taking the journey to Ketu.

By addressing root issues we impact the fruit if our experiential life. The root distills the essence and sap, which in turn translates to the taste of the fruit. Tantric’s know this Sap to be Soma. Soma is made up of Tejas, Ojas and Prana: mental fire, fluidic potency and breath power, respectively. The balance of these constituents is a preoccupation of Tantra.

TAKING THE SEAT OF POWER
Ancestral issues might present some of the dustiest shelves in our psychic library. Spiritual unrest in the energetic plane of the ancestors, spans concurrently across realms of time and space, and resonates and reverberates into the very fabric of our everyday life and being.

When we make peace
with our ancestral line,
we nourish the roots.
Without the roots,
their will be no fruit.
Having dispute with the family is a deep and subtle issue that is often the cause of much heartache and pain and anguish. Sometimes we enter into unconscious seats that have their origin on the subtle levels. It might not be easy to approach long held family issues.

The energies of the family heritage pass along the line until they are resolved in the great odyssey of destiny. Cutting off our roots might be one way to give the tree of our being space to grow. It is not uncommon that family members do not see eye to eye, but…

… to cut away our ancestral roots
out of anger, shame or denial
is to cut away
a great portion of our power.
Coming to accept the good, the bad and the ugly of our heritage is to take the seat of power.

HEALING THE FAMILY TREE
All our relationships
are mirrors
of our ancestral dynamics.
Are connections are coloured by the energies of our line. Some of the patterns and footprints that we walk in are woven of ancestral twine. We may see how our children follow the paths that we ourselves transferred to them. We may see how we take on the energies of our elders too. The root is the undercurrent that can’t be cut away without affecting the fruit.
Reclaiming our power by standing for our heritage, is the first step in resolving the past.

“Can we resolve the past
Lurking jaws, joints of time?
The Base
To come of age in a dry place
Holes and caves.”

J. Morrison – American Prayer

When we redress the issues from a spiritual angle, we effect changes in the manifest realm. Merely holding a positive thought in mind is of little consequence in this pursuit. At the best, it might convince us that things are all well and good. The Tantric learns to employ all facets of their being in the spiritual pursuit of healing.

When we approach the spiritual world with a holy sense of purity we confine our psychic forces, and therefore confine their expression in our manifest life.

Angelic lightness
is just one facet of being,
but it is not the whole picture.
The pursuit of the holy stems from fear, denial and escapism to the true face of reality. The Goddess has many faces. Some of which are blinding, some of which are dark and consuming. To sit in the seat of power and to allow the full impact of feeling the effect of her ever changing gaze upon us is to be in reality.

To superimpose the Goddess’ face with a wished for visage, it to apply shadow and lipstick to the mirror. If we keep sticking things upon her mirror, we will create a fantasy and lose touch with reality. This is not the way spirituality is meant to be.

The ancestors dwell on this star. They are known as the #Pitris and are made up of guardian spirits and deceased ancestors.
Yogic culture works profoundly with ancestry. Our heritage is understood to be our root that yields the fruit of our being.

There are various rituals in Tantra for blessing the ancestors, and connecting to their blessings. Tantric work spans across many planes of existence. By connecting to the root energies resonating through time, we see how time is a concurrent thing, existing and moving together in sync, like the fingers of a wristwatch.

We release spirits and energy through the chromosomes of space and time, by our involvement in the spiritual side of life, when we approach the world of the ancestors by way of ritual.

There are many special days for Tantric ancestral rites. These are days, when the world of the ancestors is said to open up and be within view to the eye that looks.

Dark Moon days,
for example,
are times when the spirit world
intersects with the earthly plane.
That is a day
when the ancestors are worked with.
Tantric ritual dedicates a whole month to Ancestral work in the autumn. There is the ritual festival of first honouring the mothers line for a fortnight. Which is then followed by honouring the fathers line for a further fortnight.

When the Moon is is Magha Nakshatra, it is also a day when the ancestors come close to us spiritually. The half ascending Moon of Bagalamukhi supports us to touch the balance of dark and light ancestral themes. And so, on this ritual night, while the moon in in the #Star of #ancestry, we shall take a journey to the world of the #ancestors. This night is blessed under the auspices of the Goddess #Bagalamukhi. She it be, who pulls the spirit beyond the terrestrial.
